Hi Everyone,
Just wanted to say that I am sorry I haven't kept up on this board
as much as I had hoped, with school nearing the end and work picking
up, kids growing, family illness, and everything else going on, it
has been one long winter, but spring is coming!

Our upcoming bird fair is Sunday, April 29th 2008 at the National
Guard Armory in Brainerd, 1115 Wright Street, 56401, from 10-4 for
guests. Now on our 3rd year, we have grown considerably in the
community and have a number of new vendors with birds, cages, seed,
and supplies at the fairs. LACBC holds 2 yearly, one on the last
Sunday in April and one on the last Sunday in October.

We are toying with the idea of having a "show" instead of a fair in
October over the next couple of years, but nothing has been set yet.

Vendors come from the Metro area, South Dakota, North Dakota, Iowa,
and occasionally Wisconsin, along with our hometown people up here
in Minnesota.

Thanks to Wrobels, our LACBC news letter goes out frequently to keep
everyone up to date on upcoming events.
We will be visiting Crosby/Ironton school in April before the bird
fair and plan to have a toy-making day in May. We also have been
talking about hosting a parrot behavior seminar for late summer and
would like input on this topic.

Best wishes and happy spring to all!
